Hi All.
Hoping someone can help me. We had our garden flagged with indian stone a couple of months ago, and unfortunately after having a BBQ, I've noticed that we've got fat drops on the stone.
I've tried pressure washing and fairy liquid but it's not shifting and the marks look rubbish. Really disappointed.
Can't anyone recommend a product to remove these marks?
Many thanks.

Great, thank you.
It won't strip the colour out of the stone will it? Is the stuff pretty idiot proof to use?

No it won't remove any colour out of the paving, but has the paving been sealed? if yes what product was used?
Yes it is very easy to use.

No the paving isn't sealed. Will that make a difference to remove of the fat splatter?
Would you recommend sealing the paving afterwards? Do you have a recommendation for what to use?

No it's not going to make a difference to the removal of the fat stain, I asked if it had been sealed as if it had, it shouldn't have stained the paving as long as you had tried to remove the fat straight away. Sealing the paving is an option, BUT we are really coming to the time of year that sealing exterior paving becomes a but more difficult, with the overnight temperatures dropping and damp over night as the paving needs to be thoroughly clean & dry to seal properly. Seeing as you have only laid the paving quite recently, I'd let it go through the winter and then next spring onwards when the weather is a bit more predictable give the paving a deep clean, allow it to dry then seal.

Is seeking the paving a job for a professional or can my husband do it?
Thanks for the advice, you've been really helpful!

Not an easy question to answer really, if he is decent at DIY then maybe, it's not hard, but it does have an element of skill to it though. Can you post a photo or 2 of the paving? so I can see what you have there.
